problem with pump

[banjomanwv]

I have a becker vt 4.4 pump I got with my Shopbot and after running for a couple hours it got so hot it shut down, why would it run so hot?

Actually, it will not even work now.

It's probably the amp setting in the starter. Click it up a few amps and try it again after you check the breaker.

T, Make sure you tell Shopbot about it so they can fix it for future people and also help you sort it out.
Brady, can you Amp about amp recommendation? Or steer me towards something to read that's not too technical? Thanks.

Scott,
I'm fairly sure that is English, but I have no idea how to answer that. Ohms law is all most need to know...

Brady, Sorry, resistant to electrical English when I'm beat, and the more I resist-the warmer my brain gets. I know Om's Law though---That's the one where "The more people that chant "Ohm Money Padme Hum" at the same time----The better it sounds" Right? :)

Talked to Ryan, they took care of it right away, I also talked to someone there yesterday about the Z zero plate, mine has a big bow in it and is not flat, Im thinking that's not normal?

T, Call Dianne at Shopbot. We had a warped plate with the Northern Desktop and worked around it, but then called Dianne and had a brand new flat one in days. Pretty essential to EVERYTHING to have an accurate Z.
